In other words, they will tell us all about the music industry in the city of Los Angeles. Lily Rose Depp stars alongside The Weeknd. She will play a pop singer who begins a relationship with the owner of a club in the city, who is also the leader of a cult.
On the other hand, one of the stars of the band BLACKPINK is in the series, Jennie, and although not many details are available yet, the singer will be in all six episodes of the series and according to IMDB, her character is Anys.
